    Hahah, me, too! My need to unsee SNL goes back so many decades... all the way back to Nick the Lounge Lizard (Bill Murray) singing "Star Waaaars! Nothing but Star Wa-aaars!"

    The two planets you see are moons/other planets in Jakku's system, NOT Jakku. The camera is facing away from Jakku out toward the planets and star destroyer. The landing craft are flying towards Jakku which is off camera. We don't get a glimpse of Jakku until Kylo's ship leaves the planet.

    Just watched the movie again. One minor thing I did not pick up on the first couple viewings, was the fact that the beam from Star Killer base did not split just moments upon entering the Hosnian system, but was already split into numerous beams as we see it traveling past Kylo and the Finalizer.

    The newest Star Wars Insider issue is out and they have a section named 50 Things to Notice in TFA. It's some hints that were in the JTTFA books and ended up in the movie and about who did little cameos, etc. It is neat and informational and if you haven't already go pick it up.

    They say there is a resemblance to two different hallways in Rey's Force vision. I know the hallway is from Bespin but they think it also looks like the one from ROTS when Anni and Obi are on Mustafar. I don't see it but just wanted to know if y'all see what they see?

    The Mustafar pic isn't a very good one but it was the only one I could find with the hallway.

    At about 1:54:30, when Poe is flying sideways so he can fit into the damaged thermal oscilator, you can see a strap or a hose dangling to his right (our left). It's a nice touch.

    Yeah, the only similarity is the triangular shape of the hallways. It's just the hallway from Empire:

    (I would have included a better screencap, but the file wouldn't let me. Because clearly a screenshot would be piracy)
    The writer of that article was stretching something just to try to include Revenge of the Sith.

    I asked this in the Finn thread but I wanted to ask a larger audience as well... I think a scene is missing on my DVD. After Hosnian Prime is attacked, and Finn runs back to Han on Takadona saying it was the First Order, I thought in the movie Han asked Chewie for digital binoculars to look for himself... on my DVD no such scene exists. Did I make this scene up in my mind or confuse it from some place else? Does anyone else remember this scene?

    I don't remember there being a scene like this.

    You're the second person to say that... I'm starting to think I'm thinking of another movie and projecting it on to Star Wars Episode 7 :( They say the mind is the first thing to go LOL.

    I saw the movie in theaters 7 times, and that totally wasn't part of it. That is very interesting though.

    It would have made sense in the context of that scene though .

    I watched it several times too... I actually went looking for the scene on my DVD and was surprised it wasn't there. I'm not sure where I conjured this up from, because so far no one else has said they remember seeing anything like it.

    I just don't know why I remember it so vividly to go so far as to look for it in my DVD.

    :(

    Dah well

    Well I at least wouldn't think of burning you alive my friend as for me, you are really starting to see the light. Now it's my turn to be burned alive or quoted negatively for what I am about to say. TFA was very pleasing to many fans for the nostalgia factor and for the special effects but storywise the movie was incredibly lacking as it was just an unoriginal replica of ANH. Many people will quickly disagree as they love anything SW no matter how good or bad it may turn out but for me at least, TFA is the worst SW movie ever and it lacks the magic that Lucas gave us in all the past six movies. It's just a good sci fi movie with good effects and SW elements in it. The magic just isn't there. Now let the negative quotes fly!

    I have to agree there...it doesn't have the core elements of how SW was/is unless you count "rebooting" specific OT-specific scenes and it's a shame that George wasnt used in a better --- and greater --- capacity ...now we can go down together in a blaze of glory, @Amanaman ;) .

    @Rayjefury, I mentioned this over in the Finn thread, but there is something like what you're describing in the novelization.

    That scene was never in the movie. The novel? Maybe, but I haven't read it.

    Someone else said the same thing, it was indeed in the novel, but not in the movie... so I didn't entirely imagine it, but it was certainly not in the movie

    Technically it COULD have been in the movie at one point or another so you're not entirely at fault ...

    I'm just going to keep saying that to myself as I clearly superimposed the novel in my mind in the movie. I swear if I had had money to bet, I would've sworn that I saw the scene in the movie theater and clearly I did not. LOL
